Summary
Amy and Kat are feeling wow'd, worried, and relieved. Amy’s Aura Ring is flagging mild stress and Kat has a new scary TV show rec: Widows Bay. Amy wants to know: What are you loving right now? Email or call…we want to know what you’re loving!! Her current obsession is green peas, so the bar is low. Surprisingly, peas have impressive health benefits. Kat shares that she’s loving frozen mango cubes. Pro Tip: Let them sit out of the freezer for about 5 minutes and then eat. A caller from Spicewood, Texas checks in with her home defense strategy…which includes a .38 caliber, bear spray, and as a child, a stick she called a weenie stick for reasons that are exactly what you think. Naturally, now we all need a weenie stick by our beds at night. They also get into signs you’re spiraling, the origin story of the bendy straw, a voicemail about the Chick-fil-A protein hack and another voicemail that reminds us that childhood trauma is more universal than we think.
